Five in a Row: Volume 1 (Five in a Row #1)

For a homeschooler, this wonderful curriculum is exceptionally well-written and organized so that anyone can pick it up and teach from it at a moment’s notice. Jane Lambert has included all information necessary to teach geography, social studies, language arts, art, applied math and science for each unit so that if library materials or other research materials were currently unavailable, the teaching could still continue.
There are nineteen picture book titles (ex: Grandfather’s Journey by Allen Say) with extensive lesson plans for each title. Units can be repeated easily without repeating the same information each time. My children have been using Five in a Row for three years and the knowledge they have gained is incredible! This is a fun and enjoyable curriculum that teaches a love for learning and I highly recommend it!

It’s all here—a complete introduction to practical grammar, in one program designed to serve kids in grades 4-7. Best of all, you set the pace. Take these 36 lessons and do them in six months with older children, or 1-2 years for the younger ones… you decide what”s right. Plus more tools and help than ever for the teacher you. The Grammar Ace is not only easy to learn, it’s easy to teach. You’ll never feel stranded! Each carefully sequenced lesson in the Instructor’s Manual includes: – Definition of 1-2 new grammar rules you’ll encounter – Easy-to-follow scripted teaching segment with clear examples and fun ideas – In a Nutshell section: distills the lesson to a brief, easy-to-grasp summary – Plus answers for everything but the free writing assignments!

Fun, diverse application activities help you link the concepts to your children’s writing in practical ways that reinforce what they learn. Activity sheets in this Student Workbook speak directly to the students, and solidify their understanding of the concepts. Let your children work on their own, or do them together—these activities will seem more like fun than homework. The Grammar Ace is a perfect supplement to any language arts program.
